Good Morning Beauties!
The next attribute to your identity in Christ is REDEEMED. How glorious the thought Jesus would pay my ransom with His very own life, with His blood. That’s exactly what He did for all of us! Praise you Jesus!
We have been redeemed by Christ and made righteous before God so that we may be reconciled to The Father. That’s the gospel message in a nutshell. One day we will come before Abba Father and see His arms open wide waiting for that moment when we embrace. Then we will hear, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”
So let’s take a look at what scripture has to say. In 2 Corinthians 5:14-21 we read and learn about the Ministry of Reconciliation. 14 “For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. 15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. 16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God. 21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”
What is God speaking to you about through this passage of scripture? What lie does it expose? Selah.
Love and Blessings,
